Fragrance Du Bois Wild Orange is a Parfum launched in 2023, created by Shadi Samra. Wild Orange opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Cypress, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Fragrance Du Bois's Wild Orange carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a proper marmite scent - some reckon it's the best orange perfume going, a true Mediterranean luxury. Others get bitter blasts, synthetic whiffs, or soapy granny vibes. It’s got spirit, but it’s certainly not for everyone.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Limonene from Orange
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Wild Orange bursts onto the scene with a bright, zesty cocktail of bergamot, lemon, and mandarin, like freshly peeled citrus under a blazing sun. This vibrant opening mellows into a heart where creamy orange blossom takes centre stage, delicately balanced by the green sharpness of cypress and the fresh sweetness of lily of the valley. The journey concludes on a sophisticated base of cedar and sandalwood, grounded by earthy vetiver and patchouli, adding a smooth, woody depth that lingers.
